    So... I got abused twice today by homophobic bigots... I sure love coming to work to be called a 'fucking faggot' ... I may be gay but that doesn't make you any less of a fuckwit.

    The silver key MUST not be on the trading floor during trading hours. The only exception to this is when dispensor coin change orders are being put into the machines or the machine is being repaired. Front end security 101.

    I was actually quite surprised because up until now the SSS (he's only new) has been a big idiot, lol.

    Oh our morning was really annoying we had crazy cheques going on (for some reason there has been 2 cheques sitting in a register for as long as I can remember... whenever I've picked up a cheque in that register I've just unselected them... as even though they come up when you go to pickup...

    thing with that is at our store we don't call departments for pricechecks, the supervisor just goes and gets it themselves.. a whole lot quicker than calling someone, waiting for them to come down (if they bother), waiting for them to come back.... eh... and if it's going to end up being a...

    And in the 20 seconds that you leave the area someone can run through with a full trolley load of shopping... just saying.

    well you're not supposed to leave the s/s area so you can't go to a register to get it out, you just have to wave down the supervisor to do it for you... FUCK that is so annoying (from a supervisor point of view).... so over the s/s attendant asking for price checks and shit...

    well you'd think working at Woolies for sometime you'd know that specials are cyclic and if it's not on special this week it will probably be on special next week (for something like Coke anyway... it's pretty much ALWAYS on special, just a different pack size each week).

    How do you get annual leave for a weekend? I WISH I could do this but they insist I have to take a whole week off Mon - Sun, so then I get stuffed around if I want to go somewhere for the weekend Fri - Mon... grrr

    Are you casual? The company is allowed to cancel a casual's shift up until a couple of hours before it so by the reasoning I would argue a casual can cancel their shift in the same time frame.. they can't really do anything - except hate you and give you no shifts next week, lol.

    On a normal night I would start cashing up tills at 6... so that there are only tills left in for the number of operators I have at the time + 1 for me (usually about 4-5 by 7pm). And then I just count them as they leave (7.30/8/8.30). So I should end up with about 4 tills by 8, 2 tills by 8.30...

    they are within the timeframes stipulated in the eba. its just the little shits that go "oh it's too early.. i want it later" and then it gets busy and they ask right when there's 5 customers lined up if they can go.. i'm like too fucking bad, should have gone earlier.

    ^ lol, now if only the AM walked in, priceless... sometimes I have felt I needed a break or else I'd collapse so have given someone my numbers and told them to call me back if they need me but yeah... normally I don't have a teabreak when I'm on service @ night. I like how kids complain that...
